See my earlier post about a colleague who was done for 41 in a 40. There's a twist: he supplied the evidence. IIRC Camera van was saying 48, but he had a GPS log which showed 41.

I'd certainly be a bit miffed if that happened to me...

I'd be inclined to to say, 'No worries, tell me when you've got a replacement. I'm not having ...

Kind of depressing (although inevitable) that the focus is on the Tesla failing to brake rather than why the truck driver pulled across someone coming towards them :roll: ...or why Joshua Brown, the driver of the Tesla, failed to take control. I can just see a huge lawsuit looming ...with Tesla fee...
